Blood Protein Controllers

Blood protein controllers are another class of drugs that can be used for urticaria patients who cannot obtain relief of their symptoms with more conservative methods. For these patients, the antidepressant doxepin may be beneficial in relieving itching and pain. Doxepin must be obtained through a doctor and is known as a tricyclic antidepressant and helps to balance certain neurotransmitters in the brain. The drug can cause heartburn, constipation, eye pain or vision problems, stomach pain, fast heart rate or changes in heart rhythm, and problems with urination. Patients who take this medication need to be monitored frequently by their doctors and should report any concerns.
